JOHOR BARU: The water rationing exercise in parts of Johor Baru and Kota Tinggi will be extended to December 15, according to SAJ Holdings Sdn Bhd.
Its corporate communications head Jamaluddin Jamil said the decision was made after findings revealed the water levels of the Sungai Lebam dam in Kota Tinggi and Sungai Layang dam, Masai have grown more critical.
"The state Water Services Commission (SPAN) approved the decision as the move would prolong the storage of water in both dams especially Sungai Lebam which recorded a reading of 8.19m.
"The new schedule for water rationing exercise will be from November 16 to December 15," he said.
This is will be the fourth month of water rationing for the affected consumers.
Jamaluddin said the rain in the past few days had not increased the water levels of both dams.
